Here is my '62. Although it looks o.k. here, I just went the custom route. I lowered her a few inches and just finished painting her. She is now Satin Blue (suede) with a White Pearl top. I'll post some pix when I finsh putting her back together.

185/65/15 they ride great. I had bigger tires on it but they didnt look right and the skirts would never have fit. I love the look the skirts give it. Now for some lake pipes!

Well, project is almost done. I took my stock '62 LeMans, threw on some wide whites, lake pipes, lowered it a few inches, and painted it Satin Blue with a White Pearl Top and added some pin stripes on the hood and trunk. I was kinda going for an "Old School" look.
** Sorry, this ain't the picture. Trouble with the upload. ***
